Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: btusb: treat 0bda:0002 as a generic HCI device
Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2026 10:33:46 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260815033346.15882-1-andrewbille@gmail.com> (raw)
The 0bda:0002 Bluetooth controller reports itself as "CSR BS8510"
and exposes a standard Bluetooth USB interface.
It currently matches the vendor-wide Realtek quirk and is therefore
initialized through btrtl. The controller does not respond to the
Realtek-specific register access and initialization fails with:
Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: RTL: Read reg16 failed (-110)
No Bluetooth controller is then available to userspace.
Add an exact match for 0bda:0002 before the generic Realtek entry so
that the device is handled as a generic USB HCI controller.
With this change the controller registers successfully. Scanning,
pairing and A2DP audio have been tested successfully.
Fixes: a2698a9bf9b0 ("Bluetooth: btusb: Add Realtek 8723A/8723B/8761A/8821A support")
